Throughout my case, the team exhibited an unwavering commitment to excellence, demonstrating diligence in their work that surpassed my expectations. They consistently went above and beyond, ensuring no stone was left unturned in their pursuit of a positive outcome for me.

This level of communication not only showcased their professionalism but also underscored their genuine commitment to supporting their clients.

In addition to their legal expertise, the team consistently exhibited a high degree of empathy and support. Facing a challenging situation, their compassionate approach made a significant difference, creating an environment where I felt understood and reassured throughout the legal proceedings. A special thank you for Olivia who , as always was available to be on hand to answer any and all questions despite how trivial they may appear.

Helen was a pleasure to deal throughout the whole process using their services. She was very professional and approachable. All the costs were clear and appropriate to the cause, and there were no hidden fees or surprises further down the line. Helen is a credit to the profession, and I would certainly recommend the firm as a whole, on so many levels.

Helen was very professional, clear and concise, and it was clear that she wanted to achieve the best possible result for you in the shortest time permitting. Helen was very approachable, and it was never an issue to discuss a matter in person or talk with her over the phone. Everything you would expect from a lawyer. Helen's advice was clear and concise, and any meetings were not rushed, but took the time they took to discuss.

Highly recommended Solicitor

5

I would highly recommend Johnson Astills Solicitors.
Helen Johnson was extremely supportive from the first initial meeting in her office, where she immediately put me at ease.
Over the past 18 months she has supported and represented me through a very difficult court case.
Her passion, knowledge and humanity was outstanding to both myself and my family.
My heartfelt thanks for every thing that you and your team have done.

Neighbour disclosing prior conviction to others; discouraged.

Helen provided prompt and sage advice and wrote a very helpful 'solicitors letter' which seems to have had a significant deterrent effect

Excellent legal service by Johnson Astils

5

I was referred to Johnson Astills by a friend to help me with legal representation at the police station after I was arrested by the police upon false accusations. I have to say, I was marvelled by timely intervention and responses to my enquiries. The professionalism of the firm is highly commendable. And the most important thing is my case got dropped eventually. I can boldly say Johnson Astills is a very top and competent law firm

Friendly, professional team!

The description boxes sum up how we feel about the service that we received from these two excellent solicitors.
They were friendly, re-assuring and sympathetic to our problem and dealt with the matter in a most professional manner.
We can whole-heartedly recommend them both.
